Thermal springs near Segesta in the countryside of western Sicily, with hot pools in a natural setting.
Terme Segestane is a thermal spring area near the ancient site of Segesta, in the countryside of Calatafimi Segesta, about 75 km from Palermo. Hot sulphurous water emerges at around 45 degrees Celsius and feeds thermal pools, and the setting is rural and quiet. It is often combined with a visit to Segesta's Doric temple and theatre.
The facility has operated seasonally and has varied between open-air pools and wellness services over time, so checking the current offering is essential. A car is the practical way to reach it from Palermo. Pools are warm, so the experience suits cooler months best. The nearby temple and theatre make a good cultural complement.
